  teaching learning process.
WHY CLASS ROOM MANAGEMENT

              BECAUSE


     SURVIVAL FOR FITTEST
Welcome to CLASS ROOM!




       If you don’t plan, the
        student will plan for
               you!!
WHAT matters ?
•   You are not alone in class…
•   . . . It’s different for EVERY ONE!!
•   Anger shouldn't be part of the curriculum….
•   Focus on what a teacher can Change?
•   Must make learning relevant to students’’’’
•   It is more natural to be off-task – ENGAGE…
• Listens, RESPECT, listens, RESPECT, listens,
  RESPECT…….
• Design lessons for student mastery as
  REMEBER
              • Who Am I Planning For?
            • What Am I Supposed To Do?

Key - TIME

 Transition vs. Allocated
           Time
   Increase the variety of learning activities but
              decrease transition time

Student engagement and on-task behaviors are dependent
   on how smoothly and efficiently teachers move from one
                learning activity to another
Understanding Our
       Students

Dealing With Student Behavior in
       Today’s Classrooms
•   One in six youths (age 10-17) has seen or knows someone who has
    been shot.
•   At least 160,000 students skip class each day because they fear
    physical harm.
•   More than 150,000 school age children bring a gun to school each
    school day.
•   70% of those arrested in hate crimes are under age 19.

             CHANGING FAMILY STYLE IN
                    PAKISTAN
•   In the last two decades, there has been a 200% growth in single
    parent households.
•   The number of moms leaving home for work each morning has risen
    65% in the past 20 years.
•   Nearly 1 in 4 children in Pakistan are living below the poverty level.
Teachers who are ready
   maximize student
 learning and minimize
  student misbehavior
       are called
 EFFECTIVE TEACHER
“Effective teachers MANAGE
their classrooms.
Ineffective teachers DISCIPLINE
their classrooms.”
PUNISHMENT
    VS.
 DISCIPLINE
Why Do We Punish?

– Because it works
   • Punishment is effective for
     approximately 95% of our students
– It’s quick
   • Punishment produces a rapid (but often
     temporary) suppression of behavior
– It requires lower level thinking skills.
My views
•   D: strives to replace an unwanted behavior with a desirable behavior
•   P: takes away a behavior by force, but replaces it with nothing

•   D: Is firm and consistent, but peaceful
•   P: inflicts harm in the name of good

•   D: Positive behavioral change is expected
•   P: The worst is expected, and the worst is often received

•   D: Takes time and energy but consequences are logical and encourage
    restitution
•   P: Is immediate and high-impact but is hardly ever logical

•   D: Is not threatening, dangerous or abusive
•   P: Can be physically and emotionally dangerous

•   D: is caring but takes time and planning
•   P: is often “off the cuff” and emotionally charged
If you agree???
•   Discipline: Concerns how students BEHAVE
•   Procedures: Concerns how things are DONE

•   Discipline: HAS penalties and rewards
•   Procedures: Have NO penalties or rewards


    A procedure is simply a method or
      process for how things are to be
           done in a classroom.

      “Meaning
“There is absolutely no research correlation between
 success and family background, race, national origin,
financial status, or even educational accomplishments.
  There is but one correlation with success, and that is
                       ATTITUDE.”
